  • I've just been accepted into the Cuneo Gardens show as one of the 'few more fine artists'. The location is about 12 miles from my home, so set up and travel will be a delight. Patty, lets be sure to introduce ourselves to each other. This will be my first year at Cuneo Gardens as well. Yes, lets start praying now for wonderful weather, we've not had much of it yet this spring.
  • Michael I love Chicago. I would put the Shedd Aquarium on my list. My husband would love to take one of those architectural fish off the building and put it by our pond.
  • I will be doing the Cuneo Gardens Art Fest event.  It will be my 1st time  there and hope it will be a good show and the weather is nice.  I had done the Deerfield a few years back and it was a very good show for me.  Haven't been able to get back there as the weekend had changed dates. 
  • I'm giving the Deerfield show a try; the next weekend I'll be doing the Old Town Art Fair in Chicago.  In between, I'm going to visit the incredibly beautiful Chicago Botanic Gardens, one of the best I've seen in the US.
  • We did a DW Events show last year and loved it!  It was one of our best shows of the year, and the organizer was well prepared, pleasant to work with and provided many extras.  We're doing Yorktown this year, and we hope it goes as well as the other show last year.  If it doesn't, I don't think it will be a reflection on Debbie.
